Arms sales show US schizophrenic foreign policy: Analyst
Press TV has conducted an interview with Mike Harris, editor of Veterans Today, and Richard Hellman, president of Middle East Research Center, to discuss the United States’ proposed sale of arms worth about $1.15 billion to Saudi Arabia.
Harris believes the US has a “schizophrenic foreign policy”-- it claims it is against terrorism while supplying arms to countries that support the terrorists.
The US is using Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Israel as “conduits” to supply the terrorists with weapons to topple the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, he says.
The analyst further notes the civilians in Syria are being killed by the “terrorist operation” that the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Turkey are supporting.
“It is time to identify these countries as supporters of terrorism because all terrorism emanates from Saudi Arabia. They are the source of the Wahhabist blasphemy that advocates violence against everyone else in the world,” he states.
Harris argues the whole war on terror is a “hoax,” adding it merely gives the US the justification to go out and wage war against Middle Eastern and Islamic countries.
Hellman, for his part, thinks that members of Congress need to look very carefully at Saudi Arabia’s potential use of arms.
He also says the Congress has to consider whether this arms sale is really necessary for US national security.
